Description
Overview
The NSG 438A-auto, provides testing capabilities up to 30kV with easy to use and ergonomic design for a broad range of automotive standards. Transient Specialists is the only authorized sale partner of Teseq ESD simulators in the United States. All of our automotive electrostatic discharge equipment comes with A2LA accredited calibrations. This ESD Gun system comes with 150pF/330Ω, 330pF/330Ω, 150pF/2kΩ, and 330pF/2kΩ discharge networks.
This test equipment color touch screen allows modification many parameters including polarity selection, pulse repetition, counter functions, and discharge network detection. This Teseq product is unique in offering an activity log where the number and type of simulations can be verified by time frame and standard. It comes with discharge pistol, cradle for discharge pistol, high voltage base unit and battery pack, and many other accessories.
This pulse generator through the screen offers selectable language options, for convenience and world wide use. We also rent and sell a variety of other Teseq products including the NSG 435 and NSG 437 providing solutions for a large spectrum of electrostatic discharge testing. For exclusively 30kV testing with the standard 150pF/330Ω network for IEC 61000-4-2 we offer the NSG 438 A.
